Visited links stopped changing color?

I have windows 7 and IE9 ... all of a sudden the links, to sites and pages I've visited have stopped turning purple, and remain blue. They used to change till a couple days ago. Might seem like no big deal, but it was pretty handy.

I've tried restarting. Any ideas?

Update: @ McMuffin ... That didn't work. Thanks though.

Update 2: OK ... I fixed it by deleting history web sites visited

Best Answer: I'm not sure if this will help, but the only thing i can think of is to hit the gear button right under the red X in top right corner. Click on internet options. With the General tab open In Appearance in the bottom click on Colors. There is probably a check mark next to "Use Windows Colors". Click the Check mark so it goes away. Click OK. Then click OK in the Internet Options Dialog box. Finally restart browser.

Hope this helps.

edit: ok, if that didn't work the last option is to reset all settings. Before you do this make sure to back up your bookmarks and other things you need.

Click the wrench on top right
Click the advanced tab
Look for "Reset Internet Explorer Settings"
Click Reset

I've never used this feature, but i think it would be the same thing as starting over. :\
